Conversations and observations about California's mountains

September 12, 2008

In a recent blog, I wrote about an important new article about climate change in the Journal of Forestry, the most widely circulated scholarly forestry journal in the world.Â

But there was a problem - the article was available online to subscribers only. Â

Now you can read it for yourself.Â

My thanks to the Society of American Foresters (http://www.safnet.org/)Â which publishes the Journal, for making this happen. And without further adieu, here's the piece (remember to click on View Now - PDF tab once the page opens):
